Appeal No. 95-2041 Application 07/814,220 Willson et al., "A Simple Method For Constructing Directly Repeated Multimeric DNA Segments," Gene Anal. Techn., Vol. 2, pages 77-82 (1985). The rejection of claims 17, 18, 48 and 49 under 35 U.S.C. § 112, second paragraph, presented in the Examiner's Answer, mailed December 6, 1993, has been obviated, as indicated in the Supplemental Examiner's Answer, mailed February 9, 1994. Claims 6, 11 and 32-39 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 112, first paragraph, as being based on a disclosure which fails to provide a written description which would have en- abled any person skilled in the art to which it pertains to practice the claimed invention throughout the full scope of the claims without undue experimentation. Claims 6, 11, 17-21 and 32-47 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 over a combination of all of the above listed references. We vacate the examiner's rejections with respect to claims 6, 11, 21 and 32-47, make new grounds of rejection with respect to these claims under the provisions of 37 CFR § 1.196(b); and reverse the examiner's rejection with respect to claims 17-20. 4Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
